A Happy New Year to you ALL I spent my New years with my dad and granma... as usual! But i felt this was the best new years in many years since NOTHING BAD happened, and everyone was healthy, happy, and peaceful. Normal every day life maybe the happiest thing in life..... i DO MISS traveling though, and of course my love one in Taiwan... but spending a new year with my dad and granma is not replacebale :>

New Year's dishes (osechi)
What's inside? Can you guess?
Salmon eggs! which i hate. hahaha i hate the jelly thing inside... but its considered "valuable" food- its expensive!!
Tai- This fish is "pleasant" and often prepared for celebration- New years, New born, Marriage, Graduation etc.. So yum!
Let the Lobster opening ceremony begin!
